Looking for Alaska - Entry 2

In Looking for Alaska I have discovered three main characters. If you were to read my first entry you would know a little more about these main characters. Alaska, Pudge, and The Colonel. Through out the book I have searched for many more wants and desires from each of them. I have come to find that Alaska, wants to pull pranks and really just do what ever it is Alaska wants to do. Showing thus her spunky and demanding personality starts a trend that we see through out the book. Her boyfriend, friends, alcohol and tobacco is all Alaska needs to keep her school and social life alive. Pudge, a very outspoken kid wants more than anything in the world, Alaska. This makes it very hard for him to just want to be friends considering she has a boyfriend that she is madly in love with. This also shows a trend because through out the book John Green never forgets to mention the mad affection he feels for Alaska. Pudge also wants to fit in with his new group of friends. This is commonly shown because of all the disloyal things Pudge and his friends do. Lastly, The Colonel, who I have yet to find what he wants. Other than getting hungover and smoking with his friends, all he really wants is for his southern belle mom to be happy considering the rough life they have had. Looking for Alaska is in Pudges personal point of view. Green does a great job of showing his emotions through the words that are provided. Something that is unusual about this book is how it is structured. Instead of chapters, each little "section" starts off with however many days before a certain event. Now, I know this might sound a little weird but you have to read to see what happens before this event and what happens after.
